Help update our mail list

Families for Enrollment met last week and sent out a postcard to tribal members. We had worked hard to compile a mail list from our families and from mailings we had received in the past. If you know of someone that didn't receive our postcard and would like to be contacted with future mailings, please help us add to our mail list. You can send addresses to the email at: grenrollment@gmail.com.

While I am excited about this new group forming to help split families to obtain enrollment justice, I have reservations about this site running under an anonymous format.

That choice will doom this site to failure. People are wary of the internet and rightfully so.

You can not expect people to give out US mailing addresses and send money for postage to this anonymous web site. This address could be an identity thief, it could be a con, it could be any number of things.

If this site is honest and true, be proud. Have courage. Say who in the hell you are.

Take a lesson from Angie Blackwell. She is the only candidate I have heard who stood for enrollment justice in an up front, straight forward manner. That second letter she sent out dedicated to the enrollment problem earned her my vote.

You folks should not expect folks to send addresses and help with postage when they don't know who they are talking to. I know I won't. Either you guys come out of your self imposed closet, or I am out of here.

Someone has to have courage and step up to the plate here and identify theirself and take charge of this site in order for it to work at all.

I am sorry to speak like this, but I hate to see this web site fail. It means too much to too many people. I want tribal justice as much as you do.

If the members of this site need to be anonymous for personal reasons, that is different. However, the person in charge, needs to be a real person or this site will not work.

Hi. We have a couple of cousins that have been denied. Richard is 13 and his sister is 22. Their grandfather was a member and is deceased. Their own father was never enrolled and he is also deceased. Whose dna swab test can we use? A great uncle? An uncle?

Ok, now you are on the right track. Thank you for coming away from using the anonymous format and posting your names to make this a real web site.

Thank you!
